1 Hezekiah siangpahrang mah to lok to thaih naah, angmah ih kahni to asih moe, buri kahni to angkhuk pacoengah, Angraeng im thungah a caeh.
And when the King Hezekiah heard it, he rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth and came into the House of the Lord.
2 Siangpahrang im khenzawnkung Eliakim, ca tarik kami Shebna hoi kacoehta qaimanawk doeh kazii to angzaengsak moe, Amoz capa tahmaa Isaiah khaeah patoeh.
And he sent Eliakim the stewarde of the house, aud Shebna the chanceller, with the Elders of the Priestes, clothed in sackcloth vnto Isaiah the Prophet, the sonne of Amoz.
3 Nihcae mah anih khaeah, Hezekiah mah hae tiah thuih; Vaihni loe raihaih ni, thuitaekhaih ni, ahminsethaih niah oh; nawkta tapenhaih atue to phak boeh, toe nawkta tapen han thacak ai baktiah oh.
And they sayd vnto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of tribulation and of rebuke and blasphemie: for the children are come to the birth, and there is no strength to bring foorth.
4 Kahing Sithaw to kasae thuih hanah, Assyria siangpahrang mah a tamna misatuh angraeng Rabshakeh to patoeh boeh, anih mah thuih ih lok to na Angraeng Sithaw mah thaih nasoe, na Angraeng Sithaw mah thaih ih lok baktih toengah danpaek tih hmang; to pongah kanghmat kahing kaminawk hanah lawkthui oh, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa o.
If so be the Lord thy God hath heard the wordes of Rabshakeh, whom the King of Asshur his master hath sent to raile on the liuing God, and to reproch him with wordes which the Lord thy God hath heard, then lift thou vp thy prayer for the remnant that are left.
5 Hezekiah ih tamnanawk loe Isaiah khaeah caeh o.
So the seruants of the King Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
6 Isaiah mah nihcae khaeah, Nangmacae angraeng khaeah thui pae oh, Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Assyria siangpahrang ih tamnanawk mah kai kasae ang thuih o, toe nihcae ih lok pongah zithaih tawn o hmah.
And Isaiah sayde vnto them, Thus say vnto your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not afrayd of the wordes that thou hast heard, wherewith the seruants of the king of Asshur haue blasphemed me.
7 Khenah, a nuiah poek amkhraihaih palungthin to ka patoeh han, to naah anih mah tamthang to thaih ueloe, a prae ah amlaem ving tih; anih to angmah prae ah sumsen hoi ka dueksak han, tiah a thuih, tiah na angraeng khaeah thui pae oh, tiah a naa.
Beholde, I wil send a blast vpon him, and he shall heare a noyse, and returne to his owne land, and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his owne land.
8 Assyrian siangpahrang loe Lakhis hoiah amlaem moe, Libnah vangpui to a tuk li, tiah Rabshakeh mah thaih naah, to ahmuen ah a caeh.
So Rabshakeh returned, and found the King of Asshur fighting against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.
9 To naah Ethiopia siangpahrang Tirhakah mah Assyria siangpahrang Sennakharib to tuk hanah amsak boeh, tiah a thaih. Anih mah to lok to thaih naah, Hezekiah khaeah laicaehnawk to patoeh moe,
He heard also men say of Tirhakah, King of Ethiopia, Beholde, he is come out to fight against thee: and when he heard it, he sent other messengers to Hezekiah, saying,
10 Judah siangpahrang Hezekiah khaeah hae tiah thui pae oh; Jerusalem loe Assyria siangphrang ban ah paek mak ai, tiah na oep o ih na Sithaw mah, na ling o hmah nasoe.
Thus shall ye speake to Hezekiah King of Iudah, saying, Let not thy God deceiue thee, in whom thou trustest, saying, Ierusalem shall not be giuen into the hand of the King of Asshur.
11 Khenah, Assyria siangpahrangnawk mah praenawk boih to tuk moe, phraek boih boeh, tiah na thaih o boeh; nang loe na loih tih maw?
Beholde, thou hast heard what the Kings of Asshur haue done to all lands in destroying them, and shalt thou be deliuered?
12 Kam panawk mah pazawk tangcae, Gozan acaeng, Haran acaeng, Rezeph acaeng hoi Telassar ah kaom Eden acaengnawk loe prae kaminawk ih sithaw mah pahlong o maw?
Haue the gods of the nations deliuered them, which my fathers haue destroyed? as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden, which were at Telassar?
13 Hamath siangpahrang, Arpad siangpahrang, Sepharvaim vangpui, Hena vangpui, Ivah vangpui uk siangpahrangnawk loe naa ah maw oh o boeh? tiah a thuih pae.
Where is the King of Hamath, and the King of Arpad, and the King of the citie of Sepharuaim, Hena and Iuah?
14 Hezekiah mah laicaehnawk khae ih ca to lak moe kroek; to pacoengah Angraeng im ah caeh tahang moe, to ca to Angraeng hmaa ah a khramh.
So Hezekiah receiued the letter of the hand of the messengers and read it, and he went vp into the House of the Lord, and Hezekiah spread it before the Lord.
15 Hezekiah mah Angraeng khaeah hae tiah lawkthuih;
And Hezekiah prayed vnto the Lord, saying,
16 Cherubimnawk salakah anghnu, Aw misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng, Israel Sithaw, long siangpahrang ukhaih praenawk boih ukkung, Sithaw loe, nang khue ni; long hoi van doeh nangmah ni na sak.
O Lord of hostes, God of Israel, which dwellest betweene the Cherubims, thou art very God alone ouer all the kingdomes of the earth: thou hast made the heauen and the earth.
17 Aw Angraeng, na naa to patueng ah loe tahngai ah; Aw Angraeng, na mik to padai ah loe, khenah; Sennakherip mah thuih ih kahing Sithaw kasaethuihaih loknawk boih to tahngai ah.
Encline thine eare, O Lord, and heare: open thine eyes, O Lord, and see, and heare all the wordes of Saneherib, who hath sent to blaspheme the liuing God.
18 Aw Angraeng, Assyria siangpahrangnawk mah hae kaminawk hoi praenawk to amrosak boih moe,
Trueth it is, O Lord, that the Kings of Asshur haue destroyed all lands, and their countrey,
19 nihcae ih sithawnawk to hmai thungah vah pae o; to sithawnawk loe Sithaw tangtang na ai ni, thing hoiah maw, thlung hoiah maw, kami mah sak cop ih hmuen ah oh o pongah, nihcae mah paro pae o boeh.
And haue cast their gods in ye fire: for they were no gods, but the worke of mans hands, euen wood or stone: therefore they destroyed them.
20 Aw Angraeng kaicae ih Sithaw, Nang khue ni, Angraeng Sithaw, tiah long nui ih prae kaminawk boih mah panoek o thai hanah, vaihi anih ban thung hoiah na pahlong ah, tiah lawk a thuih.
Nowe therefore, O Lord our God, saue thou vs out of his hand, that all the kingdomes of the earth may knowe, that thou onely art the Lord.
21 To pacoengah Amoz capa Isaiah mah Hezekiah khaeah laicaeh patoeh; Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih; Assyria siangpahrang Sennakherip kawng pongah kai khaeah lawk nang thuih pongah,
Then Isaiah the sonne of Amoz sent vnto Hezekiah, saying, Thus sayth the Lord God of Israel, Because thou hast prayed vnto me, concerning Saneherib king of Asshur,
22 anih kawng pongah Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; Zion canu kacuem tangla mah nang to ang patoek moe, ang pahnui thuih boeh; Jerusalem canu mah nang hanah lu ang haek thuih boeh.
This is the worde that the Lord hath spoken against him, the virgine, the daughter of Zion, hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorne: the daughter of Ierusalem, hath shaken her head at thee.
23 Minawk kasae kathui, patoekhaih tawn kami nang loe mi aa? Mi maw na hang thuih moe, amoekhaih mik na padai thuih? Ciimcai Israel Sithaw ni nam oek thuih boeh to!
Whome hast thou railed on and blasphemed? and against whome hast thou exalted thy voyce, and lifted vp thine eyes on hie? euen against the holy one of Israel.
24 Na tamnanawk mah Angraeng to khet patoek o moe, pop parai hrang lakoknawk hoiah maesang nuiah ka dawh moe, Lebanon mae nuiah doeh ka dawh boeh; kasang koek Sidar thing hoi hmaica thing doeh ka pakhruk han, kasang koek ahmuen, thingthai kapop taw thungah ka kun han.
By thy seruants hast thou railed on the Lord, and sayd, By the multitude of my charets I am come vp to the top of the mountaines to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut downe the hie cedars thereof, and the faire firre trees thereof, and I will goe vp to the heightes of his top and to the forest of his fruitfull places.
25 Tui to takaeh moe, ka naek boeh; ka khokpadae hoiah Izip prae ih vapui tuinawk to ka kangsak boih boeh, tiah na thuih.
I haue digged and drunke the waters, and with the plant of my feete haue I dryed all the riuers closed in.
26 Hae baktih hmuennawk loe canghnii ah ka sak moe, canghnii hoi boeh ni ka ohsak boeh, tiah na thaih ai maw? Nang loe vaihi kacak vangpui parokung, thlung tapophaih ahmuen ah omsakkung ah kang ohsak boeh.
Hast thou not heard howe I haue of olde time made it, and haue formed it long ago? and should I now bring it, that it should be destroyed, and layde on ruinous heapes, as cities defensed?
27 To pongah vangpui kaminawk loe thazok o boeh, poek anghmang o moe, palungboeng o sut boeh; nihcae loe lawk ih phroh baktih, qam kahing baktih, imphu nui ih phroh kahing baktih, qoeng khuek ai ah kazaem cang baktiah oh o.
Whose inhabitants haue small power, and are afrayd and confounded: they are like the grasse of the field and greene herbe, or grasse on the house tops, or corne blassed afore it be growen.
28 Toe na ohhaih ahmuen, na caehhaih hoi nang zohhaih, kai palung nang phui thuihaih doeh ka panoek.
But I know thy dwelling, and thy going out, and thy comming in, and thy fury against me.
29 Kai palung nang phui thuihaih hoi misa ah nang suekhaih to ka thaih pongah, na hnah ah cakoih, na pahni ah sumboeng to kang kaeksak moe, nang zohhaih loklam hoiah kam laemsak let han.
Because thou ragest against me, and thy tumult is come vnto mine eares, therefore will I put mine hooke in thy nostrels, and my bridle in thy lips, and wil bring thee backe againe the same way thou camest.
30 Aw Hezekiah, nang han angmathaih ah kaom hmuen loe hae tiah oh; vaining saning loe angmah koeh ah kamprawk thingthai qumponawk to na caa tih, amla ah doeh to thung hoiah tacawt patoeng thingthai to na caa vop tih; saning thumto naah loe cangti to tuh oh loe, aat oh, misur takhanawk to sah oh loe, athainawk to caa oh.
And this shalbe a signe vnto thee, O Hezekiah, Thou shalt eate this yeere such as groweth of it selfe: and the second yeere, such things as growe without sowing: and in the third yeere, sowe ye and reape, and plant vineyards, and eate the fruite thereof.
31 Misa thung hoi kaloih, kanghmat Judah imthung takohnawk loe atlim ah tangzun to sah o ueloe, anui ah athaih tacawt let tih.
And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Iudah, shall againe take roote downward and beare fruite vpward.
32 Kanghmat kaminawk loe Jerusalem hoiah angzo o tih, kaloih kaminawk doeh Zion mae hoiah angzo o tih; misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng thacakhaih mah to hmuen to acungsak tih.
For out of Ierusalem shall goe a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeale of the Lord of hostes shall doe this.
33 To pongah Assyria siangpahrang kawng pongah Angraeng mah hae tiah thuih; anih loe hae vangpui thungah akun mak ai, kalii doeh kaat mak ai; vangpui hmaa ah pakaahaih hmuen hoiah angzo mak ai, vangpui takuihaih long khaw doeh takae mak ai.
Therefore thus sayth the Lord, concerning the King of Asshur, He shall not enter into this citie, nor shoote an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a mount against it.
34 Anih loe angmah angzohhaih loklam hoiah amlaem let tih; vangpui thungah akun mak ai, tiah Angraeng mah thuih.
By the same way that he came, he shall returne, and not come into this citie, saith the Lord.
35 Kaimah hoi ka tamna David pongah, hae vangpui hae pakaa moe, ka pahlong han, tiah thuih, tiah a naa.
For I will defend this citie to saue it, for mine owne sake, and for my seruant Dauids sake.
36 To pacoengah Angraeng ih vankami loe Assyria kaminawk ataihaih ahmuen ah caeh moe, kami sang, cumvai qui tazet, sang pangato a hum pae; akhawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk o naah loe, khenah, kami qok cing ah oh.
Then the Angel of the Lord went out, and smote in the campe of Asshur an hundreth, fourescore, and fiue thousand: so when they arose early in the morning, beholde, they were all dead corpses.
37 To pongah Assyria siangpahrang Sennakherip loe to ahmuen hoiah tacawt moe, hnuk amlaem ving pacoengah, Nineveh vangpui ah khosak.
So Saneherib king of Asshur departed, and went away and returned and dwelt at Nineueh.
38 To pacoengah angmah ih tempul thungah a sithaw Nisrok to a bok li naah, a caa Adrammelek hoi Sharezer mah sumsen hoiah takroek hoi moe, Armenia prae ah cawn hoi taak ving; to pacoengah a capa Esarhaddon to anih zuengah siangpahrang ah oh.
And as he was in the temple worshipping of Nisroch his god, Adramelech and Sharezer his sonnes slewe him with the sword, and they escaped into the land of Ararat: and Esarhaddon his sonne reigned in his steade.
